Pegasus Airlines has introduced a fee for hand luggage on its flights to Cyprus and launched four different “flight packages” in this context.
Accordingly, those wishing to take hand luggage must purchase a “super eco” package.
It is offered at least 300 TL more than the “light” package, which includes the right to take on board “a bag that fits only under your arm.”
The practice, which came into force from 14 February 2024, will apply to flights to Northern Cyprus and abroad
Pegasus Airlines explained in a statement that the reason for introducing the new packages was to “prevent overcrowding in aircraft allocation and create package structures to meet all needs.”
The statement said that “with this new application, all passengers will be able to bring on board a bag measuring 40-30-15 cm and weighing no more than 3 kilograms, which will fit under the seat.
Pegasus passengers wishing to purchase additional carry-on baggage will be able to purchase this product individually or by selecting one of the packages.”
According to the statement, the new flight packages, valid for international flights and flights to Cyprus, will offer four different options.
Passengers purchasing the Light Package will be able to purchase additional hand luggage to suit their needs. Passengers who choose one of three other flight packages called Super Eco Package, Advante Package and Comfort Flex with carry-on baggage allowance will have one personal item, one carry-on baggage and 20 kg of baggage in the hold.
